    Well Molina is already scheduled to fight Kirkland.I really hope they are not going to cancel his fight and rip him off. Im sick of watching this guy get overlooked when he is a top talent.

    Also, I don't think Kirkland Makes it past Molina... So that fight could not happen.

    He didn't want to fight Kirkland last year, but may want it on May 5th since Kirkland has a bout in March.

    Mosley? Child please, but you do what you gotta do.. Go ahead and pad that record :yep

    He's surely not guaranteed to win the fight. But even if he does, do we really think he's going to take the biggest fight of his life in that short time span? Molina is no pushover.

    Moina's most fights are a shot notice and he has still managed to do very good for himself, Kirkland is one of the first fights he is given enough time to train for a certain foe, so the Molina we will see next will be at his best, and will probably take the spotlight from kirkland as Molina is a very good and under rated fighter. 2 Months is sufficient time I believe, since I've heard commentators say he takes fights in weeks notices... So if he wins in spectacular fashion it may just ruin GBP ideas to bank on a winnable and easily sell able fight IN kirk Vs Alvares.

    Kirkland without a doubt, Mosley has no business fighting at top level, if he wants to regain any shred of respect then let Shane fight Zaveck (Former IBF Champion) the current WBA champion from the Ukraine (can not remember his name) or a Mosley - Malignaggi fight would be interesting

    However he has not right to challenge for a world title, Kirkland despite his caveman boxing mentality and obviously fragile chin still showed a lot of heart and came back to beat Angulo after being dropped. He could have pussied out but he got up off the canvas and beat a top contender at the weight

    Id much rather see Alvarez V Cotto / Lara / Molina but if its this or Mosley then Kirkland all the way

    I would rather see Molina fight Alvarez. That would probably be the best fight out of those 3 opponents. Kirkland like I have said will get stopped in 1 round by Alvarez.
    Mosley gets stopped late.

    Molina I am not so sure on. This would be nature vs. nurture. Alvarez has the edge in almost everything but Molina does not look like he will be denied anymore.

    I want to see the Kirkland fight. I don't think I want to see Mosley fight anybody. Maybe after Molina, if he wins, or down the line. Angulo isn't a bad name at all either.
